FAQ

Let's get your questions answered! 


View our FAQ about architectural drafting + interior design below 

Email us at contact@elevateddesign-co.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Architectural drafting is primarily about developing the technical drawings needed for a new build in order to get a building permit. You will need someone who has the training to create construction documents to ensure all specifications are met.


Each state and local jurisdiction individually regulate the requirements needed to obtain a building permit. There are a handful of conditions, that when met, will exempt a project from requiring stamped drawing from an architect. For instance, houses no more than 2 stories usually do not require an architectural stamp.


An architect is not required for a residential project. However, if your plan is for a major project, such as adding an addition, adding a second floor, or building an entirely new home, an architect can be your best friend.


  • Depends on the level of services your project requires. Usually, it starts out with a brief project overview from you (email, call, or video chat) on your project. During this initial inquiry we will review what type of service is best suited per your project type and timeline. 


  • Following the consultation, project programming begins which entails gathering what is needed as far as permits, contacting your contractor (if you already have one) and other consultants, putting a timeline together, narrowing down your wants/needs/requirements and style. 


  • If your project requires it, we will also set up a time for a site visit. Once the site visit/new project onboarding is complete and the contract is signed, the design fun begins! We will give you an overview of the process during the consultation and throughout the project. We value transparency. 


Yes, we provide everything from construction documents to interior design finishes. We like to see ourselves as a one-stop shop. We offer full-service design as well as a la carte style list. We can help you find your project's level of service(s)


No. We have more formal training/education in architectural drafting and design -the process of construction documents/blueprints/floor plans. Having the ability to do this in-house truly sets us apart from many interior design studios/companies. We have a background in the technical aspect of residential construction and the aesthetic that makes up interior design.


Yes, this is often a service individuals hire us to perform. The process of thoughtfully selecting, gathering, and tracking the project's items and materials. Anything from hard finishes to interior decor.


There are many benefits to hiring us (or a professional in general). This decision inherently produces less stress on you throughout the project's duration. Your space/project has a more cohesive, thoughtful design and aesthetic that we work together to curate. 


It depends on your project and the level of services you contract us to perform. Most often, for a full-service project (remodel, addition, or new build): 


  • Site visits
  • Multiple rounds of schematic and concept design rounds-> to find your perfect style. 
  • Design/material concept visuals
  • Material and item order lists
  • Material samples (if applicable) 
  • Floor plans/furniture layout (if applicable)
  • Construction documents, for permit or contractor purposes (if applicable)
  • Presentation packet of the finalized project (PDF/digital or printed copy)
